MILWAUKEE's HORROR.
Deplorable Accident at the Launch
ing of Vessel
Seven Persons Kiiled and Great Many
injured.

MILWAUKEE, WIS, Aug. by pecu-
liar accident at the launching Of the huge
steamer William II. Wolf at Well q Da-
Wilson's ship-yard yesterday afternoon,
seven persons were killed outright, several
others fatally injured, about fifty badly
hurt, and large number of others less
seriously injured. About one thousand
people had gathered to witness the launch.
The docks were lined, vessels crowded and
every scow and lumber pile was black with
spectators. Directly opposite the Graded
vessel was the large coal dock Of the
Northwestern Fuel Company. It is a
rooted dock, with huge derricks for un-
loading coal. Upon thereof OF this coal shed
a large number OF people had assembled
The view from that point was fine one
as the vessel moved directly toward the
dock. As the Wolf struck the water her
port bilge was buried deeply in the black
water of the slip; then she recovered
and rolled heavily TO port The water dis
placed by her hull rose like tidal wave
and swept over the coal dock and up to-
ward its roof, causing cloud Of coal dust
and spray. The supports Of tho dock were
insufficient TO Withstand the force of the
wave, ana ABOUT lorty lcsb u tHe sHeu
went down with its living freight, lnstan-
ly the shed went down there was wild ex-
element, A scene Of indescribable con
fusion ensued, but few cool-headed peo-
pie at once set to work TO rescue
people thrown into the river and rescue
those buried in the debris Of the platform.
Patrol wagons were summoned and ex-
| lress wagons turned into ambulances,
and the dead and injured were carried
away, Owing to the fact that many cases
Of injuries were not reported, the unfortun
ates being hurried home in carriages by
relatives aud friends, II is almost impos
sible TO ascertain the full extent of the ac

that could be done for the injured men.

required four men. to hold one OF

almost beside themselves with grief and
the horror of the catastrophe. August

DYNAMITE AS FUEL.
A Two-ycar-old Child Blown through a
Roof In Michigan.

Roof In Michigan.
HouGHToS, MIcH., Aug. A. Edward
Laudre, of Calumet, a. small mining town
near Houghton, returned from the mine
where he is employed Monday evening
bringing box which had contained nitro
glycerine. A friend accompanied Laudre
home, and the two were sitting on the
kitchen floor where Mrs. Laudre was busy
getting supper. Alfred Pauquette was in
the room, a baby two years old occupied a
high chair, and ten-year-old daughter Of
the Laudre's was helping her mother.
The tlre needed fuel and Mrs. Laudre
went out into the yard and seeing the box
her husband had brought home picked up
the cover split it in two and poked the
pieces into the stove. A sharp, Kissing
noise like escaping steam immediately fol-
lowed and an instant later a terrific explo-
sion. The stove was blown into pieces.
The iron teakettle was blown through the
roof, cutting its way as cleanly as If it
were solid shot fired from cannon.
Through this aperture was also blown the
baby. The baby was not killed. 1t was
terribly bruised about the face and lost
one eye and perhaps the sight OF the
other. The little girl was badly burned
and Pauquette's nose was fattencd. Lau-
DIRE escaped with slight wounds and his
wife, who stood right over the stove at the
moment of the explosion, was not much
hurt.

Celestial Empire.
Ofeouisc the Chinese were ahead OF
Europe. Their chronicles record print
ing upon silk or cottonin the century
before Christ, paper being attributed
to the first century after Christ. tits
certain that many hundred years ago
they had begun to put writing on trans
fer paper, lay the face downward on
wood or stone, rub or the impression
or paste on the transparent paper, cut
away the wood or stone, and take an
impression in ink which duplicated the
original. First. probably, they cut the
letters into the block, leaving white
letters on black ground, which method,
Didot thinks. was known to the Ro'
mans and was the process referred TO
by Pliny; aftcrward they cut away the
block, leaving the letters raised, to
print black on white The last process
is attributed to Foong-Taou, Chinese
Minister Of State in the tcnth century,
who was driven to the invention by
the necessity of getting exact copies
